DBFToRS does not do the same thing. Ken's routine works with a table name passed as a parameter, and opens that table from disk. Even so, Ken's routine also makes no claim to work when run in a COM server (even though his implementation would, because it works from disk). VFPCOM received the alias name of a cursor open in the calling process, which may or may not have a disk presence. The key difference is in the conversion process' access method to the VFP data in question.
